Ah, thanks, Alas, no such program appears on DirecTV's Bravo schedule here in the US.

:-(

Well. I apologize. The show was not the one I thought it was. While it was still a great show. Guitar excellence. It certainly did not showcase his diverse talent as a songwriter. Of course, that was really the essecnce of the show... no words, for the most part, mostly instrumental. I guess I was remembering an earlier show.

Seriously, a newbie may have come away from that show saying, "Uh?" It did not have the impact of his previous performaces, even though many would wish thay had half of the chops he displayed.

I mean... where was the fuckin launcher man? Kinda like asking Valdy to sing a rock & roll song, perhaps... but... hey man... sorry.

Having visited Iraq, Bruce has said he won't sing Rocket Launcher in the current climate for fear of it being misunderstood as literal rather than a statement of impulsive anger in the moment.
